This is a very interesting twist, and has a little discussed alternative background.

Right now, several states are considering ending licensing requirements for a whole bunch of activities that are currently licensed by the state.

First and foremost, of course, is gun licensing. But things like cosmetology, some types of counseling and consulting, etc. Even driver’s licensing has been brought under question because it has been noted that there is little correlation between the license and careful driving.

And turning marriage licenses into contracts makes a lot of sense, because a license is just “permission” by the state, but a contract takes into consideration lots of variables, and might even include a prenuptial agreement.

What does this achieve? How does this prevent homosexuals from legally marrying in Alabama?

I don’t get it.

Does anyone know why the states issue marriage licenses in the first place? Because the progressives wanted to control the process to make sure no white people married black people. And blood tests were instituted by the progressives to ensure that nobody produced any “undesirables”.

Why would they be able to do this? The supreme court just ruled that everyone has a right to be married. So if the state doesn’t issue a license how are they supposed to exercise that right so the state can sanction it
